@atemu12:matrix.org | xrandr sucks to use; adding custom resolutions is a PITA. Is there a more usable alternative? | 19:11:18 |
K900 | Does "don't use X" count lol | 19:13:05 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Unfortunately not lol | 19:13:19 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Although, I'm actually not sure how well sunshine works on wayland? | 19:13:36 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | But yeah, that's my use-case. Add a custom resolution for remote gaming on the 16:9 TV downstairs and switch to it when using sunshine. | 19:14:34 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | K900 (drm/amd#1417 when): What would be the alternative on Wayland though and how would you add a custom resolution? | 19:24:26 |
K900 | What I'd do is probably shove it into Gamescope | 19:24:40 |
K900 | And you can just make up a resolution | 19:24:43 |
K900 | And not even have to worry about how real it is | 19:24:49 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Yeah that'd be great | 19:25:08 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Can Steam be run in gamescope easily these days? | 19:25:22 |
K900 | Yes | 19:25:30 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Without running it as a session? | 19:25:33 |
K900 | You can steal Jovian's gamescope-session | 19:25:38 |
K900 | It can run nested | 19:25:40 |
K900 | You can also not steal it but stealing it is easier | 19:25:50 |
K900 | Also if you're going the Steam route, you should probably just use the Steam Link app | 19:26:14 |
K900 | Cause that can grab frames directly from gamescope | 19:26:26 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Not available on the Amazon crap thingy here | 19:26:38 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Though I might just sideload | 19:26:49 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | So Steam Link just shows a blank screen | 19:48:04 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Fun | 19:48:05 |
K900 | With X or Gamescope or? | 19:48:26 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Both | 19:48:35 |
K900 | Interesting | 19:48:41 |
K900 | Do you have Pipewire running? | 19:48:45 |
K900 | It should go through Pipewire | 19:48:49 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | You mean pipewire video capture? | 19:53:08 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Even on X11? | 19:53:14 |
K900 | Yeah | 19:53:40 |
